I upgraded my kernel just now, to 2.6.27-r3. Everything boots up, though there were some mismatches when I was compiling it.

I noticed that my /etc/conf.d/net file no longer works from my previous Kernel which is the one from the 2.6.23 install. Also, eth0 is no longer responsible for wireless, it seems. It automatically created wlan0_renamed after I booted. The good news is that it connects after I try this guide

(I ended up using this guide to change wlan0_rename, to just wlan0 [link])

Also, I used this guide to add wlan0 [link] to my RC. Then I went and tried to configure the net file, but it doesn't work by modifying my old net file. My connection will only work if I do it manually from the first link.

So how do I set up my net file? I want to use a static network IP so it looks like this

Okay, so with the static configuration, can you ping your router? Is it only DNS that's not working? Did you setup /etc/resolv.conf for a static connection?_________________Gentoo PPC FAQ: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-ppc-faq.xml

Okay, what does iwconfig show you? Did it connect properly? What does ifconfig show you? Was the ip address set properly? What does route show you? Was the route set properly?_________________Gentoo PPC FAQ: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-ppc-faq.xml
